Quote from the True Charm and power of
Vedanta
It is
a very difficult task to take on the role of a leader. One must be a servant of
servants and must accommodate a thousand minds. There must not be a shade of
jealousy or selfishness, then your are leader. ‘
But,
if He exists?
I drive joy There was a
doctor in Benaras who spent 7 minutes in the morning and evening for mediation
on God. Knowing this, his colleagues and friends laughed at him. One day they
argued that he was wasting ten precious minutes on something, which he had been
misled into believing. The doctor replied, “Well, if God does not exist, I
agree that I am wasting ten minutes a day. But if He exists? I am afraid you
are wasting your entire lifetime. I prefer to waste ten minutes rather than a
lifetime. Why should you grudge me the 10 minutes joy that I derive 4m.
